Contoura LASIK

Contoura LASIK

Contoura LASIK is considered one of the latest types and techniques of LASIK used in vision correction, as this type of laser relies on creating a 3D map of the eye to help accurately determine the type of corneal curvature the patient needs.

Procedures Before Undergoing Contoura LASIK

  • A preliminary regular eye examination to ensure the extent of eye health.
  • Examination of the patient's fundus to ensure they do not suffer from other problems such as retinal detachment.
  • Mapping the shape of the eye to determine the amount of laser the patient needs, which is what distinguishes the Contoura LASIK technique from regular LASIK.

 

Will vision return to 20/20 (6/6) after Contoura LASIK?

Yes, vision can return to 6/6 (20/20) after vision correction with Contoura LASIKContoura Vision LASIK. However, this result depends on the ophthalmologist's expertise, the unique "eye map" (topography) of the patient, and the advanced technology utilized during the procedure.

Contoura Vision and Keratoconus: Is it Safe?

Some mild cases of Keratoconus can be treated using laser technology. However, in most instances, LASIK is not suitable for patients with Keratoconus. The determination is made by the ophthalmologist based on each patient's specific condition, the degree of corneal curvature, and corneal thickness.
